Eing. - 6 July 1943 (To the State Secretary'in Bohemia and Moravia, SS-Obergruppenführer Karl Hermann F r a n t/f Prag-czernin palais Dear Secretary of State, I received not too long ago a letter from my son Igor serving at the Waffen-SS, in which he informed me that he, who had previously held the position of underleader, had now been assigned as an ordinary shooter to an MG company. I can't explain what this means, but in any case I am also politically interested in the fate of my son. My son Igor.23 years old, visited the Czech military gymnasium in Czechoslovakia dås and finished with quite good success. From the time he registered for the Waffen-SS, he became SS-Sturmmann and Rottenführer in a short time in a row and held the position of leader: last year in autumn he came to the SS.Standar- te Germania and served in Holland and France and was then transferred from there to the Skull Division, with which he participated in the winter campaign and the counter-offensive and was promoted to SS-Rottenführers, he took part in the counterretroduction of Kharkov and always wrote to me Brie-fe full confidence. Again he also wrote that comrades were assigned by him to guide courses and said, "The series will also come to me." St.TvD-185.2ol/42
